Very nice my friend.
First of all its amazing that you've actually painted everything, my armies are all work in progress.
I like the colour scheme but would suggest using washes to tarnish the metallics and in places the paint seems slightly thick.
Generally brilliant. Keep up the good work.

To be honist this is about 1/3 of my forces. The rest where just baught and are getting magnetized. Once I paint those I will probably get them all a wash.
thanks for the pointers I will try not to be so heavy handed with my brush.

Metallics are notoriously difficult to paint and generate an effect appropriate to the scale. That is why NMM exists and its so hard to achieve well. You should be very proud of everything you've done, I've just noticed the bike bases....nice idea.
More please

I know it's hard to pick up on, but doing a good wash is a start, I'd also use some dark greys to highlight some of the edges of the black. Highlighting is a tough skill to learn but totally worth it.

Models look good, nice clean, crisp paint jobs, my only suggestion (and this is nit picking, because i think they look great  ) is probably to use a micron pen (or a very steady hand, a detail brush, and some chaos black) to mimic some writing on the scroll on your heavy weapons troop.

Great work. Like others have mentioned, I really like all of your conversion work. That is one of the most satisfying things about the game. Its always nice to show up to the battlefield with a model that is different than everyone elses. The colors and tones you have chosen definately match the chaos characters. Keep up the excellent paint work!
